Petals Back On The Rose

These days when we say goodnight

We're lying facing our own side

Wondering if we're in the right bed.

We've gotten used to all the fighting

I walk out, you start crying

And neither one of us knows what we said.

But all that's gonna change from right now on

I won't give up until we're back in love.

Can we put the petals back on the rose?

It's been you and me and this stem of thorns from a long time of lows.

Sadness and frustration.

Sometimes that's how it goes.

But baby tonight I start to put the petals back on the rose.

I haven't been the man I promised I'd be

To fight for us and not for me

Every choice I made pushed you away

And I don't wanna let you go

Because I didn't do all I know

To make you happy once again and stay, stay, stay

And all that's gonna change from right now on

I won't give up until you're back in love.

Can we put the petals back on the rose?

It's been you and me and this stem of thorns from a long time of lows.

Sadness and frustration.

Sometimes that's how it goes.

But baby tonight I start to put the petals back on the rose.

I realize it takes more than just wanting it

But with a little work we don't have to quit

Baby please, please.

Help me lift us out and put the petals back on the rose.

It's been you and me and this stem of thorns from a long time of lows.

Sadness and frustration.

Sometimes that's how it goes.

But baby tonight I start, yeah I'll win your heart

And I'll do my part to put the petals back on the rose.
